Chelsea have emerged as a shock destination for Rafael Leao after the AC Milan winger was offered to the Blues in a cut-price deal. The Portugal international had been a primary target for both Arsenal and Manchester United earlier this summer, but both Premier League giants have now cooled their interest.
Ruben Amorim has warned Rafael Leao that he faces a difficult task to reclaim his place in the AC Milan starting line-up following their pre-season win over Manchester United. The Portuguese forward missed the friendly clash through injury amid ongoing transfer speculation, with his manager insisting competition for attacking berths will be fierce.
The AC Milan owner wants to put an end to any possible controversy in a one-to-one meeting. If he wants to leave, Leao will have to come up with a valid offer.
AC Milan star Rafael Leao has taken to social media to address the mounting speculation regarding his future at the club. The Portuguese international explicitly clarified that only a select few are authorized to handle his professional affairs as transfer links to Turkey continue to swirl.
Arsenal's pursuit of Vinicius Junior always seemed like a stretch. It emerged in a bombshell revelation in late July that the Gunners were 'exploring' the possibility of striking a deal for the Real Madrid superstar as they seek to make a marquee left-wing signing, but those explorations ultimately came to nothing as he agreed a new contract at the Bernabeu. So, where do they turn next?
Luka Modric has addressed the ongoing speculation surrounding Rafael Leao's future at AC Milan, insisting that the Portuguese forward is mature enough to decide his own path. Despite the winger's desire for a new challenge, the veteran midfielder is desperate to keep the star man alongside him for the upcoming campaign.
